Not the administration's travel ban, not the current law of the country, but the "Trump" travel ban. 

I’m wondering when Trump is going to push Congress to change the name of the country.

The United States of Trump.

The tremendously United, believe me, everyone is talking about it - States - states, we are a country of states, people - of - of what? - of America!!! will be the official name.

I know he doesn't listen to anyone.  But his utter lack of understanding of the law and the court system never ceases to amaze me given that his sister is a federal judge.

Good Lord, I go overseas for a few months, Shaggy implodes,  Anthony Bourdain dies, and Trump is still President.  

I have spent approximately half of my working life in places other than the United States and I've never seen our fortunes at a lower ebb in terms of respect and influence.  Everywhere I get asked "Where are the Americans?  How can they allow this to happen to their great country?"  I still feel a lot of affection for individual Americans but it feels like the world is waiting and wanting us to lead them based on our proclaimed national virtues/values. They don't think we're asleep at the wheel, they think we've jumped out of the car. 

If you want to find a group of Americans who hate Trump, look no further than people who have to do business abroad. 

yes, most of my team is in london, and they know not to even ask me about things. the industry where i work is tremendously international, and all my domestic clients (these are c-level republican starter kits, mind you) HATE trump and his polices. it's uncanny. but they have to travel abroad, and answer the same WTF questions from their clients. and now they may have to deal with tariff roadblocks for international business. BUT MUH MANUFACTURING BASE

There has to be some financial benefits on the back end for Trump personally with the fucking trade war.

No way he’s doing this just for Putin.

They did, but then you had V-E day and then V-J day and they came home.  Some got called up for Korea as well, but still came back home.

This administration is intentionally inflicting pain on children and their families in order to get political concessions from the Ds in Congress and from the families themselves.

I think the cruelty is what his hardcore supporters want.  Trump doesn’t care about the wall, neither do his supporters.

In fact, it would work to Trump’s advantage not to get the Wall because he could always have that card to play when he wants to stir up the base.

It’s the same reason our immigration policy remains fucked up due to far right republicans not getting on board for a reasonable solution.

If they solved the immigration issue, it would be more difficult to blame the others invading from the South.

Let’s not pretend the Republicans really care about national security.

Agree to a point.  I think they do want to "solve" immigration, but to them that would mean stopping any immigration of any kind for eternity.

It really is good that Donald Trump dodged the draft.  

Its far too easy to see this whiny little snowflake complaining to his parents that the mean old drill instructors made him do push-ups or run 5 miles or keep his bunk neat.   He would have been a drain on his fellow soldiers.

I think they first want to solve immigration, and then they want to solve emigration, if you get my drift, and I'm mighty sure you do.

He's not.  Trump isn't only after financial benefits.  He loves it when he's complemented and those who do so can control his direction.  Bannon set up the model for success.  The tariffs are Peter Navarro following the Bannon method.  Blow smoke up Trump's ass by complementing his rhetoric.  Brand your desired policy to fit with Trump rhetoric.  Its easy with "Make America Great Again," or "they're taking from us, but not giving us anything," or "we're bringing jobs back to whatever town."  Trump really has nothing more than catchphrases and no policy ideas, so you can get him to take up yours as long as you give him all the credit.  Now he's a champion of your policy.

It's like when a band busts out a deep cut that hasn't been played live in a long time. "Dude! We got a Schwarzenegger and Bad Apprentice Ratings! Woohoo!"

"Man, I saw Trump play live back in June 2018. He'd just finished his set and walked off the stage, but the crowd was screaming for more. 5 minutes later, a projection of the 2016 Election Map pops up on screen and he breaks right into an extended jam version of "Ungrateful Black Athlete" before closing it out with "The Central Park 5 are Still Guilty." The crowd went apeshit!!!!!!!"

Perhaps some of our more skilled photo shoppers can put DOTARD's head on Private Pyle.

Maybe come up with some type of group, maybe call it the American colonization society as a placeholder?

Why would they? To get killed by the muslims? Get raped by the Mexicans? Molested by a tranny in a public restroom?

The biggest trumper I know...48 years old, never been out of Texas except to visit family in SW Louisiana. Racist, homophobic, anti-semitic, and an online seminary graduate and "pastor" at his local non-denominational evangelical church. He seriously mocels his whole persona after Phil Robertson...right down to the beard.

He would've been fragged and the world would be a much better place today.

mark twain said it best.  

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”

 

literature, education, and travel.  very few trump supporters know what those 3 things are.

lemme guess, it's called a "cowboy church"

Walking through the Dubai airport there was a 100ft ad for a new line Trump properties. It’s pretty sweet that our president is also an infomercial for himself.

I don't think they call it a Cowboy Church, but it's semi-rural and I doubt there's a college degree to be had in the whole congregation.

I was told that the deficit and fiscal responsibility was the #1 issue for GOP voters.  My Emoryoid newsletter was very clear on that point.  Thus, this is fake news.

It would be the biggest issue RIGHT NOW if it weren't for 46,765 Trump Voters in Pennsylvania,  22,177 Trump Voters in Wisconsin, and 10,704 Trump voters in Michigan

80,000 people managed to neuter the GOP's #1 issue.

Only when Dems hold the White House. When Republicans hold power it's cut taxes for the rich and spend, spend, spend!! Their deficits don't matter. Reagan out front should've told ya.
